SUNDAY ATTHE FAIR.
A Steady Flow of the Multitude
of Pleasure-Seekers, an" a
Quiet but Delightful Day.

Barring the norther. which was al
most too cool for comfort, the fair
grounds were delightful place to be
yesterday and many persons who
prefer quietude to the stir aud buster
of week day assemblages, avaicd
themselves Of the OCCASION to take in
1 he fair" while Others did the same
because their avOca ions render il in-
convenient for them to attend during
he week, so mat there were quite
large crow Us in the main buildings
and about the grounds the entire day,
greatly Augmented, however, during
the afternoon. AT the concert by the
Mexican bnnd. about O'Clock, the
iuain building WAS comfortably filled,
and the crowd seemed pretty evenly
divided in attention to the sOul-stir-
ring strains Of music and the various
charming exhibits, all Of which were
open to view. The concert over, the
grand military parade attracted large
multitude, ana was truly grand dis
play of our citizen so.diery. The bal
loon ascension, which was an attrac.
ton for many, did not gel start till
near nightisll, but, judging from the
view Of it which some of The HERALD
peope had from Oak Cliff about sun
down, those who remained to witness
the ascension were fully gratified.
Most of the lunch stands were closed,
but d at conducted by the ladies Of
the Congregational church was open
and well supplied, aud did fine pusi-
ness. Most of the side show curiosi-
ties were closed in Difference 10 the
Sunday Jaw, or depended on volun-
tary ontributions for remuneration;
vet the "Jerusalem" exhibit was open,
and there was constant flow of ex-
cursionists 10 the ancient city-l0
cents for the round trip-while the
roller-coaster rolled and ratified on Ms
usual.
